Tiny Biography
Brixtol Textiles started in a small kitchen in Stockholm, Sweden by two longtime friends Gustav Kjellander and Emil Holmström.
The idea of parting with tradition and breaking the convention fuelled the birth of the brand and it became the manifestation of an idea in the shape of quality clothing inspired by a combination of British workwear and the 1960's mod culture. The name "Brixtol" is a combination of the south district in London called Brixton and the city of Bristol. Brixton, an area where bands such as The Clash has their roots and the City of Bristol, which is one of the true hangouts for the 1960's mods. Gustav and Emil bring these elements to the brand, drawing influence and culture while still maintaining a Swedish/Scandinavian feel.
